Mode 7 announced Ground Shatter’s next game today with the action-packed trailer below. You’ll be a member of Section Eleven, an intelligence branch that aren’t afraid of getting their hands dirty when digital espionage falls short. “As a Section Eleven agent it is your job to find direct solutions to emerging threats…largely by smashing people’s faces into things,” Mode 7 say. The trailer below is quite neat, with flashy action shots highlighting your finishing moves. Mode 7 say that you’ll choose from a 150 cards to build a deck of skills catered to your own play style. Moves can be upgraded as well. Missions will have various objectives like clearing a room or protecting a VIP target. There will also apparently be an online leaderboard to track daily mission scores. I’m pretty sure I don’t spot a single percentage to hit chance either, thank goodness. Let me trade the news cap for the opinion helmet here right quick. I do not care for deck building games. Regardless of what they’re built on top of, I just cannot get interested. I saw “deck-building” and immediately thought “aw, do I have to?” However, I do quite like tactics games and this looks neat enough that I’ll gladly put up with my skills looking like cards for this tightly-packed tactics ’em up. Really, it does look pretty flash, doesn’t it? Even the cards are pretty stylish. I’m sorry I judged you, little digital cards. Fights In Tight Spaces will release in “Q3 2020,” Mode 7 say. You can find and wishlist it on Steam.
